Who is Black Lives Matter?
Black Lives Matter was founded by 3 women:
Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza, and Opal Tomati
According to Patrice Cullors in a 2015 interview they are all “Trained Marxists.”
In a 2017 interview in Teen Vogue
Patrice Cullors stated: “When I first heard that we were being labeled a terrorist group, I was taken aback. Then I looked back in history:
Angela Davis was called a terrorist; Assata Shakur is on America's Most Wanted list. This is what comes with the territory of fighting for our freedom.”
In a 2014 interview
Alicia Garza had this to say: “When I use Assata’s powerful demand in my organizing work, I always begin by sharing where it comes from, sharing about Assata’s
significance to the Black Liberation Movement, what it’s political purpose and message is, and why it’s important in our context.”
Assata Shakur
is a convicted cop killer that escaped prison and is being harbored by Communist Cuba.
Opal Tomati has been
pictured smiling with brutal Venezuelan Communist dictator Nicolas Maduro
and participated in an event honoring him.
The Black Lives Matter Global Network also thanked Fidel Castro for harboring cop killer Assata Shakur while writing a
glowing Eulogy
for that brutal Communist Dictator after his death in 2016.
In 2016, after a very successful
“Fist Step” cookout in Wichita, KS
that brought together police and members of the public to get to know one another, Black Lives Matter made it clear they did NOT support this event.
Patrisse Cullors had this to say: "The group of people who had a BBQ with the police are not affiliated with BlackLivesMatter" and "We don't sit on panels with law enforcement,
and we don't have BBQ's or cookouts with law enforcement. We feel the best method at this point in history is by holding police accountable by
organizing and advocating for police accountability." BlackLivesMatter DC tweeted “THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL #BlackLivesMatter CHAPTER! THIS IS NOT IN LINE WITH OUT PRINCIPALS.”
Regarding the problems plaguing black America, it is almost universally accepted that one of the biggest problem is the lack of fathers in black households, with 70% of black kids being born out of wedlock.
Even Don Lemon agreeds.
What is Black Lives Matter response to this issue? Though since deleted their “What We Believe” page explicitly stated “We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement.”
Look through their literature, find anywhere they promote 2 parent families or fathers for boys, you won’t.
BLM has removed the “what we believe” page from their website, but the internet is forever,
it can still be found here.
Monica Cannon-Grant is the organizer for BLM Boston. She was also a big supporter of Joe Kennedy and Ayanna Pressley. She went off on a
30+ minute tirade attacking Rayla Campbell,
a black Republican woman that was running against Ayanna Pressley for Congress. Ms. Cannon-Grant referred to Rayla as “Melanin Adjacent” because she is married to a white man.
She, in her highly racist and profane rant, implied Rayla is with her husband to get a credit score and house. She also attacks black men that date/marry white women.
She has never apologized. She’s only said she wishes she chose her words more carefully. So, she is a racist, but wishes she put her vile racism in more polite terms?
Monica Cannon Grant is currently facing 18 criminal charges, including 6 felonies, for various activities related to her former charity "Violence in Boston." This didn't stop
Billerica High School from hosting her as a guest speaker for Black History Month. A non-profit run by the Assitant Superintendent and a member of the school board paid her fee.
In August 2020 after BLM rioting and looting spawned by a false report that the police had shot and killed an unarmed 15 year old boy,
BLM organizer Ariel Atkins had this to say:
“I don’t care if someone decides to loot a Gucci or a Macy’s or a Nike store, because that makes sure that person eats,” Ariel Atkins, a BLM organizer, said. “That makes sure that person has clothes.
“That is reparations,” Atkins added. “Anything they wanted to take, they can take it because these businesses have insurance.”
The same woman that equated the August 2020 looting in Chicago to reparations doubled down and
called the idea of criminality racism.
““The whole idea of criminality is based on racism anyway,” she told the NPR station. “Because criminality is punishing people for things
that they have needed to do to survive or just the way that society has affected them with white supremacist BS,” she said”
Dr. Thomas Sowell
famously said
“Racism is not dead, but it is on life support -- kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as 'racists'.”
Race hustling also pays quite well with Patrisse Cullors going on a
home buying spree recently,
including a $1.4 million dollar compound in an 88% white neighborhood in CA. “Patrisse Khan-Cullors, the leader of Black Lives Matter and a self-described Marxist, recently purchased a $1.4 million
home in an exclusive Los Angeles neighborhood where the vast majority of residents are white, according to reports.” “Last year, Khan-Cullors and spouse Janaya Khan ventured to Georgia to
acquire a fourth home
— a “custom ranch” on 3.2 rural acres in Conyers featuring a private airplane hangar with a studio apartment above it, and the use of a 2,500-foot “paved/grass”
community runway that can accommodate small airplanes.”
